Bekannte Prüfstecker, zum Beispiel in der Automobilindustrie wie in DE 102007036831 , werden zum Prüfen von neuen Automobilkomponenten verwendet, wobei sie an die zu prüfenden Baugruppen, wie die Zündung, die Ladeeinrichtung, die Motorsteuerung oder Motorregelung etc. eines Automobils oder Zubehörteil oder eines beliebigen zu prüfenden Steckers angeschlossen werden. US 2004/0087202 A1 beschreibt einen geschlitzten, elektrischen Führungsstecker, der in einem Anschlußstück einrastet und an dem über ein Außengewinde eine elektrische Leitung angeschraubt werden kann.Known test plugs, for example in the automotive industry as in DE 102007036831 , are used for testing new automotive components, being connected to the assemblies under test such as the ignition, charger, engine control or engine control etc. of an automobile or accessory or any connector to be tested. US 2004/0087202 A1 describes a slotted, electrical guide connector, which engages in a connector and on which an external thread an electrical line can be screwed.

Derartige Prüfstecker werden am Tag bis zu tausend Mal in die zu prüfende Baugruppe eingesteckt und wieder abgezogen. So dass an derartige Prüfstecker hohe Anforderungen an die Qualität bezüglich der Langlebigkeit und Passgenauigkeit sowie die Unversehrtheit der zu prüfenden Baugruppe gestellt werden.Such test plugs are inserted up to a thousand times a day in the module to be tested and removed again. So that high demands are placed on the quality with regard to the longevity and accuracy of fit as well as the integrity of the module to be tested on such test plugs.

Bei bekannten Prüfsteckern weist das Gahäuse einen Verriegelungshebel auf, der an einem Ende drehbar gelagert ist und an dem anderen Ende derart ausgebildet ist, dass der Prtifstecker in seinem Gegenstück so einrastet, dass der Prüfstecker fixiert ist, wobei der Verriegelungshebel eine Feder hinter dem Drehpunkt des Verriegelungshebels aufweist, die den Hebel nach vorne zum Stecker- oder Kupplungsmodul hin drückt, so das zum Einstecken des Steckers der Verriegelungshebel heruntergedrückt wird, um nach dem Loslassen in dem Gegenstück des Steckers einzurasten.In known test plugs, the Gahäuse on a locking lever which is rotatably mounted at one end and is formed at the other end such that the Prtifstecker engages in its counterpart so that the test plug is fixed, wherein the locking lever is a spring behind the fulcrum of the Has locking lever which pushes the lever forward to the male or coupling module out, so that is pressed down for insertion of the plug of the locking lever to lock after releasing in the counterpart of the plug.

Dieser Verriegelungshebel macht den Stecker im Umfang größer und die Stecker werden je nach Steckerlänge immer länger und machen den Stecker somit unhandlich und schwer zu bedienen, insbesondere kleine Stecker lassen sich so nicht herstellen.This locking lever makes the plug bigger in size and the plugs are getting longer and longer depending on the length of the plug make the plug thus unwieldy and difficult to use, especially small plugs can not be made so.

Weitere Schnappverschlüsse sind aus EP 0 141 305 A2 , DE 10 66 451 B , und DE 17 00 201 U bekannt.Other snaps are off EP 0 141 305 A2 . DE 10 66 451 B , and DE 17 00 201 U known.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, den Stand der Technik zu verbessern, insbesondere einen Prüfstecker mit einem Verschluß bereit zu stellen, der handlich und leicht bedienbar ist sowie an beliebigen Stellen eines Steckers anbringbar ist und höhenverstellbar ist und auch für sehr kleine Stecker zu verwenden ist und sehr langlebig ist.The object of the invention is to improve the prior art, in particular to provide a test plug with a closure that is handy and easy to use and can be attached anywhere on a plug and is height adjustable and can be used for very small connector and is very durable.

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss nach Anspruch 1. Der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss ist ein im wesentlichen rechteckiger Formkörper, wobei der Formkörper gestuft ist, so dass der Formkörper aus zwei gedachten rechteckigen Quadern besteht, die vorzugsweise die gleiche Länge und Breite oder Tiefe, aufweisen und eine gemeinsame plane Ebene aufweisen und gegenüber der planen Ebene eine Stufe dadurch bilden, dass die beiden gedachten Quader (gedacht deshalb, weil die beiden Quader eigentlich einen einheitlichen Formkörper bilden), eine unterschiedliche Höhe aufweisen, also ein Quader höher wie der andere Quader ist, wobei im höheren Quader sich vorzugsweise der Schnappverschluss selbst befindet und im niedrigeren Quader sich eine Höhenverstellung für den Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss und die Befestigungsvorrichtung für den Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss selbst befindet.The test plug snap closure according to the invention is a substantially rectangular shaped body, wherein the shaped body is stepped, so that the shaped body consists of two imaginary rectangular parallelepipeds, which preferably have the same length and width or depth, and a have common plane and level with respect to the plane form a level that the two imaginary cuboid (thought so because the two cuboids actually form a single body), have a different height, so one cuboid is higher than the other cuboid, where in the higher cuboid preferably the snap lock itself is located and in the lower cuboid is a height adjustment for the Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss and the fastening device for the Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss itself.

Der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss ist vorzugsweise so aufgebaut, dass der Schnappverschluss und die Höhenverstellung innerhalb der Einheit jeweils eine Stufe bilden, womit sich der Schnappverschluß und die Höhenverstellung jeweils auf einem unterschiedlichen Höhenniveau befinden.The Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss invention is preferably constructed so that the snap closure and the height adjustment within the unit each form a step, whereby the snap closure and the height adjustment are each at a different height level.

Der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss weist vorzugsweise eine Nase auf, die sowohl in Einschapprichtung als auch in Ausschnapprichtung angeschrägt ist, so dass sie an der Spitze ein dreieckiges Prisma bildet, das eine viereckige Grundfläche, zwei viereckige Längsflächen, die die gemeinsame Längsspitze bilden und an der Seite zwei dreieckige, vorzugsweise abgerundete Flächen, vorzugsweise Kanten aufweist. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorzugsweise die gesamte Nase abgeschrägt, bzw. abgerundet, vorzugsweise ist die gesamte Nase an ihren Kanten abgeschrägt, bzw. abgerundet.The test plug snap closure according to the invention preferably has a nose, both in Einschapprichtung than is also chamfered in Ausschnapprichtung so that it forms a triangular prism at the top, which has a quadrangular base, two square longitudinal surfaces which form the common longitudinal tip and on the side two triangular, preferably rounded surfaces, preferably edges. In a preferred embodiment, preferably the entire nose is chamfered or rounded, preferably the entire nose is chamfered at its edges, or rounded.

Die Nase kann auch nur einseitig angeschrägt sein, wenn der Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss nicht wieder geöffnet werden soll und so nur einen Notabriß aufweist.The nose can also be bevelled only on one side, if the test plug snap closure should not be reopened and so has only an emergency stop.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist beim Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss der Schnappverschluss mit Teflon imprägniert, einer sogenannten hard-coat® Beschichtung mit Teflon-Imprägnierung.In a preferred embodiment, in the test plug snap closure, the snap closure is impregnated with Teflon, a so-called hard-coat® coating with Teflon impregnation.

Beim Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss erfolgt die Höhenverstellung der gesamten Verschlusseinheit über eine Schraube. Die gesamte Verschlußeinheit weist ein Innengewinde auf, in das die Schraube mit ihrem Außengewinde eingreifen kann. Diese Schraube ist hohl, so dass durch diese Hohlschraube als Befestigungsmittel eine weitere Schraube, mit einem Durchmesser, der geringer als der Durchmesser der Hohlschraube ist, durchgeführt werden kann, damit der Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss an einer beliebigen Stelle an einem Gegenstand befestigt werden kann, der verschlossen gehalten werden soll und wieder geöffnet werden soll. Die hohle Schraube weist vorzugsweise ein Innengewinde auf, in das die Befestigungsschraube, vorzugsweise mit ihrem Außengewinde, geschraubt wird. Dies bedeutet bei einem Prüfstecker, dass der Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss an einer Stelle des Steckers montiert wird, von der aus der Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss über eine Kante in einem Kupplungsstück greifen kann. Allgemein kann der Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss an jeden beliebigen Gegenstand montiert werden, der über eine Schiebebewegung an einem anderen Gegenstand befestigt werden soll, wobei dieser Gegenstand lediglich eine Kante, Steg oder Schulter aufweisen muss, über den der Schnappverschluss eingedrückt gleiten muss, um dahinter, vorzugsweise aufgrund der beim Einschieben gespeicherten Energie, ausfahren zu können, um eine reversible Verbindung herzustellen, die durch einfaches Herausziehen wieder gelöst wird. Die Stärke der Verschlussverbindung, des Druckpunkts, die Einschnappstärke der Nase wird über die Höhenverstellung, vorzugsweise mit einer Schraube, die vorzugsweise aus Messing ist, eingestellt, d.h. je weiter entfernt die Nase von der Kante, dem Steg ist, über den sie einschnappt, desto weniger Kraft ist erforderlich und je näher die Nase der Kante, dem Steg, kommt, hinter dem die Nase vollständig ausfährt, desto mehr Kraft ist erforderlich den Stecker einzuschieben und wieder herauszuziehen.With the test plug snap closure, the height adjustment of the entire closure unit is carried out via a screw. The entire closure unit has an internal thread into which the screw can engage with its external thread. This screw is hollow, so that through this hollow screw as a fastening means another screw, with a diameter which is smaller than the diameter of the hollow screw, can be carried out so that the Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss can be attached anywhere on an object that is kept closed should be and should be opened again. The hollow screw preferably has an internal thread into which the fastening screw, preferably with its external thread, is screwed. In the case of a test plug, this means that the test plug snap lock is mounted at one point of the plug, from which the test plug snap closure over an edge in one Coupling piece can grip. In general, the Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss be mounted on any object that is to be attached via a sliding movement to another object, which object must have only one edge, web or shoulder over which the snap closure must be pressed depressed to behind it, preferably due to the Energy stored during insertion can be extended to produce a reversible connection, which is released again by simply pulling it out. The strength of the closure connection, the pressure point, the Einschnappstärke the nose is adjusted via the height adjustment, preferably with a screw, which is preferably made of brass, ie the farther the nose is from the edge, the bridge over which it snaps, the more less force is needed and the closer the nose of the edge, the bridge, comes behind which the nose extends completely, the more force is required to insert the plug and pull it out again.

So kann beispielsweise bei einem Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss, der über eine Schraube zur Höhenverstellung mit einem Gewindedurchmesser von M5 und eine Gewindeganghöhe von 0,5 mm um eine Umdrehung verstellt wird, ein Weg von 0,5 mm zurückgelegt werden. Die erfindungsgemäße Schraube zur Höhenverstellung weist in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform einen Sechskant als Kopf zur Einstellung auf, so dass mit jeder Verstellung des Sechskants um 60° die Schraube um eine Höhe von 0,083 mm verstellt wird. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform stehen die gegenüberliegenden parallelen Seitenflächen des Sechskantkopfes mit den darüberliegenden Längsseiten des Quaders so überein, dass sie miteinander fluchten, so dass, nach vorheriger Einstellung der Schraube zur Höhenverstellung, diese im eingebauten Zustand, also wenn Schraube und Quader in einer Einbaunut vorzugsweise formschlüssig versenkt sind, keine Verstellung der Schraube zur Höhenverstellung mehr möglich ist. In einer derartigen Ausführungsform ist der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss vorzugsweise in einer Höhe von 4 mm einstellbar. Somit ist eine sehr feine Einstellung in der Höhe möglich und der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss kann so auch universell an seinen Einsatzzweck angepasst werden, also ob die Verbindung leichter oder schwerer lösbar sein soll. Ein Vorteil ist, dass sich die Schraube zur Höhenverstellung im eingebauten Zustand nicht verstellt, sich aber immer nachstellen läßt, nach dem der Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss ausgebaut wurde.For example, in a test plug snap-in closure, which is adjusted by a screw for height adjustment with a thread diameter of M5 and a thread pitch of 0.5 mm by one turn, a distance of 0.5 mm can be covered. The screw for height adjustment according to the invention has in a preferred embodiment, a hexagon head for adjustment, so that with each adjustment of the hexagon by 60 °, the screw is adjusted by a height of 0.083 mm. In a preferred embodiment, the opposite parallel side surfaces of the hexagonal head with the overlying longitudinal sides of the cuboid coincide so that they are aligned, so that, after prior adjustment of the screw for height adjustment, this in the installed state, so if screw and cuboid in a mounting groove preferably positively sunk, no adjustment of the screw for height adjustment is possible. In such an embodiment, the test plug snap closure according to the invention is preferably adjustable in a height of 4 mm. Thus, a very fine adjustment in height is possible and the test plug snap closure according to the invention can also be universally adapted to its purpose, so whether the connection should be easier or harder to solve. An advantage is that the screw for height adjustment in the installed state does not adjust, but can always be readjusted after the Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss was removed.

Erfindungsgemäß befindet sich eine Feder, vorzugsweise eine Gasdruckfeder oder eine Spiralfeder, bevorzugt eine Spiralfeder, die das Eindrücken und wieder Ausfahren der Nase ermöglicht, im erfindungsgemäßen Schnappverschlußgehäuse, indem die Feder sich in einer Bohrung direkt in der Nase abstützt, wobei die Feder vorzugsweise austauschbar montiert ist, vorzugsweise indem die Feder in der Bohrung der Nase als Gegengewicht entgegengesetzt zur Spitze der Nase selbst gelagert wird, indem die Feder in der Bohrung, einem Führungsschacht mittels eines Deckels, der vorzugsweise über eine Schraube verschlossen wird, unter Spannung eingeschlossen wird. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist ein Teil des Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss eloxiert. Bevorzugt ist der Deckel zum Verschlissen der Feder im Führungsschacht in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform farbig eloxiert, so dass sich so verschiedene Steckergrößen von einander unterscheiden lassen.According to the invention is a spring, preferably a gas spring or a coil spring, preferably a coil spring which allows the depression and extension of the nose, in the snap closure housing according to the invention by the spring is supported in a bore directly in the nose, the spring preferably mounted interchangeable is, preferably by the spring in the bore of the nose as a counterweight opposite to the tip of the nose itself is stored by the spring in the bore, a guide shaft by means of a lid, which is preferably closed by a screw, is included under tension. In a preferred embodiment, a portion of the test plug snap closure is anodized. Preferably, the lid for wiping the spring in the guide shaft in a preferred embodiment is colored anodized, so that can be different from each other so different connector sizes.

In einer besonders Ausführungsform ist der Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss so aufgebaut, dass die Nase des Schnappverschlusses eine ovale Form aufweist, die sich auf einem ovalen Zylinder befindet, der einen größeren Durchmesser wie die Nase aufweist, so dass der Zylinder eine Schulter aufweist, die sich in einer ovalen Bohrung, die sich unten verengt, formschlüssig abstützen kann.In a particular embodiment, the test plug snap closure is constructed so that the nose of the snap closure has an oval shape located on an oval cylinder having a larger diameter than the nose, such that the cylinder has a shoulder extending in an oval shape Bore, which narrows down, can support positively.

Der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss kann auch universell als Schnappverschluss eingesetzt werden.The test plug snap closure according to the invention can also be used universally as a snap closure.

Der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss kann unmittelbar vorne am Stecker angebracht werden, unabhängig davon wie lang der Stecker ist.The test plug snap closure according to the invention can be attached directly to the front of the plug, regardless of how long the plug is.

Der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss kann an einem größeren Prüfstecker auch in mehrfacher Anzahl angebracht werden, so dass vorzugsweise zwei bis vier erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschlüsse in einer Reihe angebracht werden.The test plug snap closure according to the invention can also be attached to a larger test plug in multiple numbers, so that preferably two to four test plug snap closures according to the invention are arranged in a row.

Der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss hält ca. 1000 Öffnungs- und Schließvorgänge am Tag aus und hat eine Lebensdauer von über einer Million Öffnungs- und Schließvorgänge.The Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss holds about 1000 opening and closing operations per day and has a lifespan of over a million opening and closing operations.

Der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss läßt sich viel leichter stecken wie Prüfstecker nach dem Stand der Technik, da der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss sich leichter gegen die Federkontakte, die dem Stecker entgegen arbeiten, stecken läßt.The Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss according to the invention can be much easier stuck as test plug according to the prior art, since the test plug snap closure according to the invention can be easily against the spring contacts that work against the plug stuck.

Gegenüber bekannten Schnappverschlüssen mit einer Kugel, ist der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss in kleinerer Ausführungsform ausführbar, da die Kugeln erst ab M5 oder M6 verbaubar sind, also einen größeren Durchmesser als 3,5 mm aufweist, eine Kugel steht somit 1,5 mm heraus. Somit weist der erfindungsgemäße Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss durch seine größere Fläche gegenüber der Kugel eine größere Festhaltefläche auf.Compared with known snap closures with a ball, the test plug snap closure according to the invention is executable in a smaller embodiment, since the balls are buildable only from M5 or M6, that has a larger diameter than 3.5 mm, a ball is thus out 1.5 mm. Thus, the test plug snap closure according to the invention has a larger retaining surface due to its larger area in relation to the ball.

Den erfindungsgemäßen Prüfsteckerschnappverschluss bildet ein Grundkörper 1, der eine Formkörpereinheit aus zwei verschieden hohen Quadern 2 und 3 bildet, wobei der Quader 2 höher ist und eine Bohrung 8 aufweist, die einen Führungsschacht für den Schnappverschluß 4 mit seiner Nase 5 aufweist. Der Schnappverschluß 5 ist ein ovaler Zylinder 6 der am unteren Ende, wenn er in die Nase übergeht, eine Schulter 7 aufweist, die sich in der Bohrung 8 am Steg 9 abstützt, der dadurch gebildet wird, dass die Bohrung 8, die den Führungsschacht bildet, sich am Ende zu einer Bohrung mit geringerem Durchmesser verengt, so dass der Steg 9 gebildet wird, an dem sich die Schulter 7 des Zylinders 6 abstützt. In den Zylinder 6, der hohl ist, wird eine Feder 11 eingeführt, die mit dem Deckel 12 unter Spannung eingeschlossen wird, in dem ein Deckel 12 mit einer Schraube 13 befestigt werden kann, so dass die Feder 11 auch jederzeit ausgewechselt werden kann. In den Quader 3 wird die Hohlschraube 10 zur Höhenverstellung eingeschraubt, durch die die Schraube zur Befestigung des Prüfsteckerschnappverschlusses eingeführt werden kann (nicht gezeigt).The test plug snap closure according to the invention forms a base body 1, which forms a molded body unit of two different heights 2 and 3, wherein the cuboid 2 is higher and has a bore 8 having a guide slot for the snap closure 4 with its nose 5. The snap closure 5 is an oval cylinder 6 which at the lower end, as it passes into the nose, has a shoulder 7 which is supported in the bore 8 at the web 9, which is formed by that the bore 8, which forms the guide shaft , narrows at the end to a bore with a smaller diameter, so that the web 9 is formed, on which the shoulder 7 of the cylinder 6 is supported. In the cylinder 6, which is hollow, a spring 11 is inserted, which is trapped with the cover 12 under tension, in which a lid 12 can be fastened with a screw 13, so that the spring 11 can be replaced at any time. In the cuboid 3, the hollow screw 10 is screwed in for height adjustment, through which the screw for fixing the Prüfsteckerschnappverschlusses can be introduced (not shown).
